Preparation
- Step 1
Boil potatoes in lightly salted water until soft. Drain and run them through sieve, or mash well, and let dry on top of stove in warm oven.
- Step 2
To the potatoes add egg yolks and blend well. Add only enough flour to make a firm, yet delicate dough. If too much flour is added the dumplings become tough when cooked.
- Step 3
On lightly floured surface roll dough into strips measuring 1 by 8 inches. Dust them with flour. Lower strips, one at a time, into the top chute of gnocchi machine while cranking handle slowly. Gnocchi will roll out the bottom chute. Cover them with a towel until ready to cook.
- Step 4
Cook gnocchi in large pot of boiling salted water. When they rise to the surface they are done. Serve with sauce of choice.
- The gnocchi maker is $34.50 at Hammacher Schlemmer, 147 East 57th Street. It is not available through the store's mail-order catalogue.
